LESSONS SHOULD ACCOMMODATE STUDENT LEARNING STYLES

My belief is that all students have different learning styles. Therefore lessons need to be individualized to meet student needs. In order to be successful students need to be engaged by creative teachers. My teaching experience has taught me to accommodate these needs when developing lesson plans.
I have 15 years of teaching experience with special needs students in a rural school district. During this time i provided private tutoring sessions for Elementary, Middle, High School and College students. At the college level my tutoring experience is with reading, writing, study skills and organization. Currently I develop educational programming for incarcerated youth.

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating from Ithaca College cum laude, I completed my B.S. in Speech Language Pathology in 2 and 1/2 years. I was a business major my freshman year at Siena College and realized I would rather be working to help others then sitting at a desk for the rest of my life. I have volunteered in a kindergarten classroom for one year, working with groups of 4-5 children in learning centers. I have provided speech therapy for two clients under the age of 8 during my clinical practicum in Spring 2009 at the Sir-Alexander Ewing- Ithaca College Speech and Hearing Clinic. I have developed language goals for a 4 year old with a disability while involved with the Racker's Swim Buddy Program in Ithaca, NY. I have a passion for working with children and enjoy helping students succeed. For more experience, I can send my resume.
As I was once a child with a speech impediment, I received many ... read more

As a recent graduate of Rochester Institute of Technology, I am excited to begin helping high school and college students with math and science, as well as technical and essay writing. I have earned a BS in Industrial and Systems Engineering, and a MS in Engineering Management. This curriculum has enabled me to gain a deep understanding of math and science used in both engineering and business settings. I have also learned extensive writing skills throughout my career both at Greatbatch, Inc and Lockheed Martin. Throughout both my undergraduate, graduate and full time work, I have been exposed to many learning opportunities and I would love to share my knowledge and excitement with the future leaders.

A Little Bit About Me...

I really enjoy working with students of all ages. One of my favorite parts about being a tutor is working with students in small group or 1:1 settings. I have a great deal of experience working with both students with disabilities and students without disabilities. I believe that each student is different and tutoring allows for the student to focus on the way that they learn best. Depending on the age of the student, I also believe that they can play a role in determining which ways they learn best and how they feel they can be most successful.
Throughout my undergraduate time at Le Moyne College, I worked as both a tutor and substitute teacher. After graduation, I continued to work as a tutor and teacher while I pursued my Master's Degree. Once I finished graduate school I began teaching full time as a Special Education teacher. I have worked with students in all grades ranging ... read more

I like to motivate with stories and interactive discussion. Most of my teaching involves drawing out someone's talents and inspiring them to reach for something better in themselves. There is a great deal of fear and trepidation when someone tries to change anything whether it is health behaviors, relationships, personal performance, etc. My secondary purpose is to promote confidence through contructive evaluation that allows the student to comfortably make mistakes and plan new approaches.
As a chiropractor and business owner, I am teaching everyday. People need to understand how to create health and that they have the potential to be the engineer of their lives. Wellness and personal development are the keys to vitalistic living but easily overlooked in our stressful world that emphasizes the mechanistic, "react to crisis" mode of function. I am reversing a great deal of ol ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have spent most of my career in helping students with learning challenges and other special needs. My strongest asset is that I am very good at teaching students on a one-to-one basis. I have tutored a lot of students who are considered to be slow learners or who have some kind of learning disability. When I first started in the education field, I helped to transition students from being in the least restrictive environment to going to a regular classroom. This is what use to be called mainstream education. I still use the skills that I learned an developed when I was doing mainstream education. I believe that many students who now go through inclusive learning classroom are left behind. They still need that mainstreaming link that is so often neglected. If you have elementary students who need to bridge the learning gap or they are somehow left behind and need to catch up in their edu ... read more

Understanding each student's learning style is key to providing quality instruction. My background in assessment helps me determine baseline data for each student so that I can track progress toward agreed-upon goals and objectives. I firmly believe that students must be shown good models and that clear directions which clarify their misunderstandings helps them become competent with necessary skills and processes. Parents of students I have taught often expressed appreciation for knowing how their children learned and focusing instruction in that manner. With my wide experience at the elementary, college, and adult levels along with my work with English Language Learners, I know that I can provide a quality teaching style that will support a student working toward established goals.

I feel that one of my strengths is my creativity towards learning. Not all people learn in the same manner, therefore my teaching style depends on the person I am working with. Some people learn best through rhythm and tones, other through notes and elaborate explanations, samples and examples.I am a very patient person and I do not like to give up but explore the numerous creative manners in which to unlock learning for an individual. I have a very relaxed, easy going personality myself and I am approachable and understanding. However I am honest and firm in my values and beliefs. Learning should have a level of sustainability to it and build upon experiences, cultures, and beliefs.

Individualization is an important part of my teaching style. I think it is important to identify what the student needs to work on and present it in a way the student can grasp the concept and enjoy learning. The student has to enjoy learning to succeed. I try to present material in such a way that the student will find it interesting and use different techniques to help them remember what they have learned. I also use the pre-teaching/re-teaching strategy. The student doesn't feel overwhelmed with the newly presented material, more confident to participate in class, more willing to ask a question, and is more successful with class work and homework assignments.
I have a strong math and science background. In college, I started out in chemical engineering (2 1/2 yrs.) and then switched to education. My bachelor’s degree is a dual degree in Elementary Education and Special Educat ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I like to use different methods to help students learn. I am a hands-on teacher who believes in having students discover their own successful learning styles. Students learn the best by doing, so, I try to let them figure things out while guiding them through instead of having them memorize rote information. Learning becomes permanent only when it is understood. I am a firm believer in Life-Long Learning.
I have been an educator for 24 years. I have never thought about doing anything else because I love teaching. I've been told that I have a way with students that makes them feel comfortable and confident. I have taught everything from K thru 8th grade and I esp. love middle school. Extra curricular activities are my strong point and I have been involved in many throughout the years. My experience includes time in suburban Florida as well as inner city schools in upstate NY.
